R ailway 0 ce , 30, Broad-street, Bristol, Mrs. Serle asked why poor men who played only for amusement were to be denied a trifling recreation, and large houses where gambling for large sums among rich people was carried on constantly were to be entirely passed over ? Mr. DYER replied, it was not what she considered to be prudent that magistrates were to perform, but they were to enforce the law when cases were brought before them, and over which they had jurisdiction.

THE ARMY. LAW INTELLIGENCE. the case, it was clear that the statute of limitations must operate as a bar to its recovery. The petition must there fore be dismissed with costs. - Mrs. Serle, very much dissatisfied, paid the fine. The informers, two little Irishmen, gave the names of Cormack and Carroll. The appointment of Deputy Adjutant-General of Jamaica has become vacant by the promotion of Lieut.-Colonel Macleod, K.H., to the Lieut.-Governorship of the Island of St. Christopher. Lieut. Ferdinand Whittingharn, of the 7th (or Royal) Fusileers, has been appointed an Aide-de-Camp to Lieut.- General Sir Samuel Ford Whittingham, K.C.8., command ing the troops in the Windward and Leeward Islands. Detachments from the depot companies of the 11th, 53d, and 73d Regiments have been ordered to be held in readiness for embarkation, to join the service companies of their respective corps in the lonian Islands. The following are the numbers of which these detachments will consist, viz.-11th Foot.—One Lieutenant (Tobin), one sergeant, and 35 rank and file ; 53d—One Captain (O'Brien), one Ensign (Lempriere), one sergeant, and 10 rank and file ; 73d—One Lieutenant (Cahell), one sergeant, and 15 rank and file. _ _ COURT OF KEYG'S BENCH, Nor. 11. THE KING V. DIGNUM. Air. L. WIGRAM applied for costs on the part of the official assignee for whom he appeared. The COURT, however, refused the application. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL moved for a rule to show cause why a criminal information should not be filed against the defendant for a most wanton and insulting assault committed by him upon Mr. Van Sandau, the attorney. On the 2d day of November, at about half-past nine o'clock at night a loud Pnocking was heard at the door of Mr. Van Sandau, which was situated in Mecklenburg square. Mr. Van Sandau was not then at home, but his wife was, and two persons came into the house, inquired for Mr. Van Sandau, and, when they found he was not at home, went away, but said they would return. They did return, and then went into the parlour. One of them had a horsewhip in his hand, and said that his name was Major Quarles, of the Queen's Own Regiment of Lan cers. He came home between ten and eleven o'clock, and then found a person lurking about, as if waiting for him. His family was, of course in great alarm, and, as soon as he entered the Image, the defendant, who was an attorney of the Court, took the whip out of the hands of the person calling himself Major Quarles, and horsewhipped him. This Major Quarles was, as he was informed, no Major, but an attorney's clerk. He was taken into custody, but Dignum escaped. These were the facts of the case, and he trusted that their Lordships would feel that this was a case which called for their interference. There was no objection to the appli cation, which he felt it to be his duty to state to their Lordships. On the spur of the moment Mr: Van Sandau took out a warrant against Mr. Dignum, who was appre hended and held to bail. There had, therefore, been a proceeding taken with a view to prosecute him. If their Lordships should be of opinion that this application could not be granted, unless the other proceeding was at an end, it would be suffered to drop at once, for there never had been the least intention of pursuing two modes of prosecu tion at the same time. Indeed, he should be willing to make it part of the rule, that the indictment should drop at once. iIIARYLEBONE. Yesterday Richard Challoner, a young man, son of Mr. N. Challoner, professor of music, was placed at the bar charged with threatening the life of his father, who resides in Church -street, Portman market. The 'prisoner was ordered to find bail.

On Thursday night Francis Drake, a ruffian-like-looking fellow, was brought before the Hon. G. C. NOILTON, on a charge of having committed a most murderous assault on his son, a boy of ten and a half years of age. The prisoner, who is a manufacturer and hawker of hemp mats, had sent his son home with six shillings to a female with whom he cohabited, and on his return in the evening he discovered that he had only given five shillings to the female. He instantly asked the boy, who was in bed at the time, what had become of the other shilling, and on his declaring that he had lost it, he (the prisoner) seized bold of a scrubbing brush, and, with a violent imprecation, levelled a blow with the back part of the formidable weapon at the head of the unfortunate youth, which took effect, and deprived him of alt signs of animation ; yet the brute struck him a second and a third time.

Information has been received at the different po lice-offices and stations, that a woman named Ann Smith, alias Crusty Poll, was apprehended on the sth instant, by the constable of Bithorp, near Banbury, on a charge of highway robbery. There was a second charge against her, and two men (not in custody), of having, some time ago, robbed a person of his money and apparel, and left him quite naked in the road. _ _ _ • On Thursday, Mr. Carte, of the Hull Citadel, ex hibited a number of experiments with rockets, for the pur pose of showing their utility in cases of shipwreck. The experiments commenced by showing the facility with which lines may be fired from a vessel to form a communication with the shore ; this was varied to show the distances which a line may be thrown ; in one instance it being fired directly at a vessel at a 100 yards, and another firing over the pilot boat, moored at a distance from the sloop in order to carry the line 150 yards. In every case the results were most satisfactory ; various elevations were adopted to show the range of the rockets. A considerable shipment of gold was made on Thursday and yesterday for Dublin, amounting to 260,000 sovereigns, the policies of insurance upon which have been effected this morning at Lloyd's at 5 per cent. The amount has been divided, and shipped in seven steam-boats from Holyhead. Yesterday morning Mrs. Ann Benyon, an elderly lady, residing at No. 9, New-street, Lower-road, Islington ton, arose from bed in her usual state of health, which was apparently healthy, and after eating a hearty breakfast she sat down by the fireside, and in a few minutes after she was discovered in an easy posture, apparently asleep, and no no tice was taken until a friend endeavoured to arouse her without effect, when it was found that life was perfectly extinct. Yesterday, a gentleman entered Hatton-garden po lice-office, and gave information that on Monday last Mr. Matthew Finch, an elderly gentleman, residing at No. 33, Richard-street, Islington, father of Lieutenant Finch, R.N., left home for the purpose of going a short distance on pri vate business ; and, although every inquiry was made after him, no tidings whatever could b e t race d o f hi m , and his friends were in a considerable state of excitement in conse quence of his absence, under an impression that something fatal had happened to him.

Ditto Grey ditto WHEATS AND FLOUR IN FRANCE COMPARED WITH LONDON. WHEAT.—The highest price of the best wheats in Paris is 25f. per one and a half hectolitre, which is equal to 38s. 3d. per English quarter. The highest price of the best Essex and Kent wheat in London is 70s. per quarter, showing fine wheat to be 31s. 9d. per quarter dearer in London than in Paris, or 77 per cent. ; and the same money which in London will buy but eight bushels of wheat, is in Paris the price fourteen and three quarter bushels of the finest wheat. FLOUR.--The highest price of flour of the finest mark in Paris is 50 francs per 159 kilogrammes, equal to 31s. 6d. per English sack of 280 pounds. The highest price of the best town made flour in London is 555. per sack, showing a dif ference of 235. 6d. per sack, or 71 per cent. ; and that the 655. which in London buys but 280 pounds of flour, will in Paris procure 488 pounds of the best flour. The bakers throughout the metropolis have raised the price of the four-pound loaf one penny ; the price of the best bread, which was yesterday sevenpence-halfpenny and eightpence, being now eightpence-halfpenny and nine pence ; the cheap or second sort, which was formerly six pence and sixpence halfpenny, is now sevenpence and sevenpence halfpenny. Nor is bread the only necessary of life which has lately risen in price, as the poor of the me tropolis severely feel in this inclement season :—Within the last fortnight coals have risen from Is. 4d. to Is. Iod. per cwt. ; and butter is now dearer by 15 per cent. than it was a few days ago. The sword worn by General Wolfe when he fell at Quebec, 1759, has been presented to the United Service Museum by George Ward, Esq., of Beedmont, Seven oaks, whose great-uncle, General Warde, was executor of Mrs. Henrietta Wolfe, the heir's mother. It is a short Saxon blade. Thursday was the anniversary of Miss Ellen Tree's first appearance on the London stage about the year 1822, at Covent• Garden, in the character of Olivia, for her sis ter's benefit. Mrs. Bradshaw (late Miss M. Tree) enter tained at her house, in the Regent's Park, a large party at dinner to commemorate the above event. Per Ton. II 8 7 I Lord DENMAN—Of course we should have expected, had we granted this rule, that the other proceedings would be stopped. But here we find that other proceedings would have been taken, and very properly taken ; and we do not, therefore, think it necessary for this Court to exert its summary power of interference in this matter.— Rule refused. BUSINESS OF THE COURT. Lord DENMAN, in answer to a question put by the At torney-General on behalf of the Bar, as to the course of business during the rest of the Term, and especially with regard to the case between the Poor Law Commissioners and Vestry of St. Pancras, said the Court would on Mon day take two cases which had been specially fixed for that day, and would then return to the Peremptory Paper ; on Thursday take the New Trial Paper, and again on the Monday and Tuesday following, leaving the Crown Paper and the Special Paper to their ordinary days, and would devote the three last days of the Term to motions, return ing whenever practicable to "the Peremptory Paper. The case specially referred to might, therefore, come on upon Wednesday next. THE ICING V. CHITTY. Mr. ERLE showed cause against a rule for a quo war ranto, in this case, calling on the defendant to show by what authority he claimed to exercise the office of Mayor of Shaftesbury, he having been at the time of his election an uncertificated bankrupt. The fact that he was so was not denied, but there was no doubt that in all other respects be was perfectly well qualified to fill the office. The ques tion here depended on the construction of the 28th and 52d sections of the Municipal Reform Act. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL supported the rule. Rule discharged. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, Nor. 11. CORNISH AND ANOTHER V. KEEN AND ANOTHER. Mr. CRESWELL and Mr. KNOWLES to-day concluded th• arguments in this case.—The CovRT postponed its judg ment.. COURT OF EXCHEQUER—Nor. 11. HEMING V. HECTOR. This was an action of assumpsit for wines supplied to the Westminster Reform Club, of which the defendant was a member. The cause came on to be tried at the last Assizes for the county of Surrey, before Lord Abinger, when the Jury found a verdict for the plaintiff for 631., leave being given to the defendant's Counsel to move the Court to set aside the verdict and enter a nonsuit, or to reduce the no minal damages. A rule nisi was accordingly obtained upon the motion of Mr. THESSIGER, against which cause was this day shown at great length, by Mr. Sergeant ANDREWS contended that the defendant was liable. Mr. THESSIGER having been heard in support of the rule, _ _ _ The douRT deferred giving judgment till to-morrow, when some other cases, involving the same point are be argued. —Judgment deferred accordingly. CROPPER V. KNAPMAN.-SAME RE SAME. In this case a bill of revivor fora supplemental bill had been filed by plaintiff, as residuary legatee under the will of one William Gibman. The original suit was instituted in this Court in the time of Lord Lyndhurst, C.B. The bill was filed by the present plaiatiff against the defendant as one of the executors of his testator, praying that an ac count might be taken of the assets which came into their hands. In addition, it specially charged that Knapman, one of the defendants, do receive a sum of 6501. which was unaccounted for. After hearing the arguments of counsel, Hie LORDSHIP was of opinion that the supplemental bill was properly filed, and the defendant admitting in his an swer that there were open accounts, it now became the duty of the Master to take the account.—Decreed accordingly. SECONDARIES' OFFICE, Nor. 11. FALSE IMPRISONMENT.-HOWARD V. COUSINS. This was an action for false imprisonment, brought by a labouring man against a respectable cow-keeper at Ken sington. Upon the pulling down of the house called Rut land House, at Knightsbridge, a sale of the building ma terials took place, at which the defendant and a Mr. Taylor were bidders, and the former purchased the wood work and the latter the brick-work. It was given out at the time of the sale that the plates or the bond timber fixed in the walls should be the property of the pur chaser of the bricks, and upon that subject a dispute arose between the two buyers. The question as to who was the rightful owner was submitted to the foreman who was su perintending the sale of the property, and he decided in favour of Mr. Taylor, who thereupon directed the plaintiff and two other labouring men, named Kepling and Mar shall, to take away the plates in carts. Mr. Cousins told the men that if they attempted to do anything of the kind he would give them into custody for felony. Mr. Tay lor, upon hearing the threat, said to Mr. Cousins, " Oh, then, I am guilty of felony, take me on the charge, as they are acting under my authority." This hint was not 'taken ; but the men, acting under the controul of Mr. Taylor, persevered in removing the disputed ar ticles, and were given into custody by the defendant, in the presence of from 50 to 100 persons. The policeman employed to secure the labourers intimated that there was no foundation for the charge : but the defendant insisted upon taking them before a Magistrate, and they were ac cordingly, after having been locked up for four hours, charged before Mr. Codd with having committed a felony by re moving the plates. The Magistrates, upon hearing the cir cumstances, said there was no ground for the accusation, and discharged the prisoners. Mr. KEATING, for the defendant, said that the whole originated in a mistake, his client really believing that a felony was committed, when, in fact, the act he complained of could not have amounted to more than a trespass. He called upon the Jury to give no more than nominal damages in this case. The Jury assessed the damages at 201. This decided the cases of the two other labourer s wl o had been charged, together with the plaintiff, with felon;, and they were awarded 201. each. COURT OF REV lEW; Nor. 11. EXPARTE HENDRIE IN RE GOODWIN. Mr. STURGEON appeare d i n support o f t h e pet iti on pre sentedin this case, which was an application on the cart of the executor of an auctioneer named Willock, formerly of Golden-square, Regent- s t ree t ; f or p erm i ss i on o f th e C our t to sustain a claim of 741. due to the late Mr. Willock for putting up and selling the property of the bankrupt. It appeared that the bankruptcy of Goodwin took place in 1815 or 1816, and the sale of the property was made in 185. About two months after the sale Willock died, and no claim was made upon the assignees for the sum now de manded until the present moment. The reason why no claim had been made heretofore arose from the fact that no funds were in existence to meet any demand that might be urde upon them. Mr. SWANSTON, for the assigress, p'eaded the statute of The COURT said that here a debt was due for eleven years, and during that time no claim was male ; that being Mr. J. Tidmarsh, a respectable tradesman, who resides at No. 13, Eyre-street-hill, waited upon the LORD MAYOR, to inform his Lordship of an attempt made to plunder him of goods by a swindling firm, whose counting-house was at No. 74, Teel-street, Liverpool. The firm had a short time ago written to him upon a sheet of paper containing their names and address, printed at top, ordering five hundred gross of steel pens, and stating " we will give a check upon our banker, and our terms are ready money." Mr. Tid; marsh, suspecting from the style of the communication that the intention of the gentlemen who favoured him with it was to rob him, set an inquiry on foot, and wrote to them in the meantime that he was ready to execute the order, but his way of doing business was " cash upon delivery." In answer to this poser he received a letter from the firm, mentioning that they had already stated the terms on which they did bu siness, and that if he did not approve of it he need not put them to the unnecessary expence of postage. This addi tional correspondence convinced Mr. Tidmarsh that he was right in his conjectures as to the character of the firm, and if he.seavit44-other:4lgumuis for ::withholding his goods, he soon was supplied from the town of Liverpool itself, for he received a letter informing him that they were known to be a set of sharks—that they bad humbugged tradesmen from different parts of the country distant from Liverpool, and prevailed upon them to send goods to Teel -street, from whence the goods were transmitted to Manchester and sold —that a house at Leeds had transmitted to them property to a considerable amount, and afterwards ascertained that it was in the market at Manchester, and that the swind lers, in all probability, vrould 'exclude Liverpool from the list of places in which they meant to plunder, for the pur pose of avoiding the disgnice..'of exposure upon the spot, and being enabled in Liverpool to appear as merchants, the designation which they assumed in their printed bills. The Loan MAYOR said that the public were indebted to Mr. Tidmarsh, for the intelligence he had given, and no doubt the people of Liverpool would benefit by its commu nication. G UILDHALL. Yesterday Mr. W bitty, a newsvender in Shoemaker-row, Blackfriars, attended before Mr. Alderman FAREBROTHER to answer the complaint of Joseph Potter, the beadle of the parish, for exercising his ordinary callirig on the Lord's Day by vending a Sunday newspaper. Potter said that during the reading of the morning ser vice last Sunday two strange gentlemen came up to him in the church, and complained that the defendant was com mitting a nuisance by selling newspapers and almanacks during church time. He told the gentlemen that be had already threatened to tear down the placards from the de fendant's shop front ; that he could not leave the church just then, but he would go out as soon as the second lesson was read, and insist on the abatement of the nuisance. He .accordingly did so. The defendant, however, was obstinate. Civil solicitations and remonstrances went for nothing. The placards on the shop front were about a double sheet of the Sunday Time:, and a copy of an almmiack with comic pictures round it. The defendant dared him to touch them, and said if he did he would indict him for felony. He went back to the church, fetched his fellow-beadle, and again begged the defendant to desist from such an expo sure, but he was just as obstinate as before. Mr. Mayo, for the defendant, asked him if he saw any paper sold ?—Potter did not, but the door was wide open. Mr. Alderman FAREBOTHER should not be disposed to notice the sale of Sunday papers before the hours for the commencement of divine worship, but he would unhesitat ingly punish every act of trading beyond that time. He should not convict the defendant on this occasion, but he trusted he would take warning. BOW-STREET. Yesterday Edward Spinks, the driver of the Norwich mail, appeared before Sir F. ROE on summonses under the Act of Parliament, for unlawfully allowing anotter person to drive the horses and coach entrusted to his care on the night of the 23d of October last. Mr. PEACOCK, the solicitor to the General Post-OfEce, should be able to prove that the accident which would be described, and which was likely to be of a very serious na ture, did not arise from illness, but from the intoxication of the defendant at the time. When some distance below Epping on the night in question, the defendant was not in a fit state to manage his horses, and called upon the guard to drive for him. Just at the moment, as he was driving with great rapidity and unsteadiness, the wheals of the mail came in contact with a market cart, in which were an old woman and a boy, and, by the concussion, both vehicles were overturned, and the old woman precipitated with great force to the ground, and severely injured. The mail was dragged a considerable distance by the horses after it had upset. The vehicle was righted, and the defendant then got the guard to drive for him. Wm. Williams, the guard, corroborated this statement, and admitted that the coachman asked him to come and " waggon" (drive) for him. They had stopped at several public houses before they came to Epping, and at each the defendant went in and had something to drink. Mr. Fulfard, a gentleman residing at Newmarket, said he was the only inside passenger'on the 28th, and on the way, until they reached Epping, the coach stopped at a great many public-houses. When approaching that place, and up to the time the accident happened, witness observed that the driving was much too rapid and very irregular, and could not help expressing to himself a hope that he might not be the subject of a:coroner's inquest the next day. The coachman was then convicted in 51. penalty, and 4/. Os. 6d. costs. 11ATTON-GARDEN. Daniel Piozzi, an Italian boy, was placed at the bar, charged by Daniel Connell, a ragged little urdhin, residing in Church-street, St. Giles's, with having robbed him of one shilling. The prosecutor, who is about eleven years of age, prior to being sworn, was asked by the magistrate whether he knew the nature of an oath ? Complainant—No, yer Vership. Mr. ROGERS—Do you know where wicked people go to after death, if they tell lies ? Complainant—Vy; yes, yer Vership ; I suppose they'll go to prison.—(A. laugh.) Mr. RoGERS—What, go to prison after death ? Com plainant—Oh no, yer Vership ; then they'll go to hell. Mr. ROGERS ordered him to be sworn, when he stated that the prisoner was in the habit of going about the town with a musical instrument, and, being acquainted with him, he proposed that they should enter into partnership, and go about to collect what they could through their se parate abilities, for which purpose he (the complainant) studied the words of " Jim Crow," which he was to sing and dance to, whilst the prisoner accompanied him in the song. In order to give effect to the celebrated " chaunt," he dressed himself up, and coloured his face with burnt cork, a la Rice, and went about singing and playing, and, in the course of their rounds, they entered several public-houses, where the company seemed highly delighted with his performance, and made him presents, which he " whacked" (halved) with the musician ; and, added to this, he received sundry drops, which caused his " Wheel about," &c., to turn into " reel about." and, on leaving one of the houses, he was obliged to seek the assistance of his companion to support him home, in doing which he forced his hand into his jacket pocket, and extracted the money ; and, on missing it, he challenged the prisoner, who denied the robbery, and having sung and danced like a Nigger for the money, and paid the prisoner his share honourably, he thought it too hard, and he gave him into custody, and he was locked'up in the station-house. Mr. ROGERS asked the prisoner what he had to say. The prisoner denied the charge. He was support " Ji m Crow" home cos he drunk de beer and gin, but he no rob, cos Jim did not pay de monees.—(Laughter.) The prisoner was then liberated. The rival " Jim Crow" gave an exceedingly black look at this decision, and said " he shall no longer be servant of mine ;" and he declared that in future he would " jump Jim Crow" by himself, and take more care of the profits of his peculiar abilities. MARLBOROUGH-STREET Mr. Serk, landlord of the Three Tuns public-house, Ru pert-street, was summoned before Mr. DYER and Mr. Co- NANT for permitting his customers to amuse themselves with the game of bagatelle. The defendant having been obliged to go out of town, the affair was very ably managed by his better half. Mrs. Serb would not pretend to deny that she had a bagatelle board in hot house, nor that some of her customers occasionally amused themselves with a game, in a room apart from the public room ; but she could prove that no money was ever gambled for, the pence which were staked being only to pav for the beer which was drunk. Her house was one o f five or six close to each other, and as all her neighbours hal some sort of atnusetwut for their cus . On Saturday last, when the light canal boat was on its passage between Glasgow and lock 16, a gentleman, who was attempting to ascertain the depth of the canal by means of a long pole belonging to the boat, lost his ba lance, and fell overboard. A young lady, hearing the noise of his fall, sprang to the side of the boat, and notwithstand ing the rapid rate at which it was moving, succeeded in catching hold of his arm, the only part of his body which was above water, and held it with all her strength, until a sailor came and lifted him into the boat. When be recovered the use of his speech, be threw himself at the feet of his fair preserver, and gave vent to the overflowing. of his heart in the warmest language of gratitude. Had as sistance not been rendered in time, the gentleman would in evitably have lost his life, as he could not swim, and the boat would soon have been at a great distance from him. The lady was likewise in great danger of being drawn out of the boat.—Scotsman. THE GOVERNOR OF THE BANK OF ENGLAND. —(From the Agriculturist.)--" In the present position of our financial affairs, the office of Governor of the Bank of England is become by far the most important in the king dom, not even excepting that of Chancellor of the Ex chequer. Our readers must, therefore, he naturally anxious to know the character and disposition of the person now filling that important situation. As we have no ambition to subject ourselves to an action for libel, when affording this information to the public, we must content ourselves with describing the qualities tha Governor does not possess, satisfied, when this is done, that no man with the smallest pretence to rationality will deem Mr. Patteson fit to fill any higher situation in his important establishment, than that of one of the stately beadles who block up its doors at the dividend time, for which situation his portly appearance peculiarly qualifies him. Lest, however, we should he sus pected of being personally opposed' to him, we beg distinctly to declare our sincere conviction that a more honest man never filled the same situation, nor one who profited less from his position ; at least we know nothing to justify such an imputation. However, it is not of much consequence to the public whether the person filling this important post be an honest man or not ; for whether a horse breaks his rider's neck by playful good -nature or vicious tricks, is of very little consequence to the rider; or that a man dis charges a loaded gun at another in joke or not, the mischief is the same. All the public are interested about is the com petency of the man to fill a situation, which, if well filled, is happiness and prosperity to them, and if ill filled, is cer tain destruction to their industry and prosperity. We say, then, most unhesitatingly, that the Governor is --not a wise man—that he is not even a common informed man—that he is not a good-tempered, or even a courteous man ;—that he is not the reverse of what is termed pig headed, or headstrong, in his conduct ; but, according to the evidence given by a witness, last week, in an Irish Court of Justice, He would not,' said the complainant to the Magistrate (speaking of the prisoner who had assaulted him), hesitate in attacking a hay rick.' We therefore ask, is such a man fit to be Governor of an important esta blishment, which, by its capricious or ignorant measures, may shake every man's property to its very foundation, or throw out of employment millions of industrious men, who claim no other privilege than that to which every man in England is entitled—viz., to live by his honest industry ?" THE DOG.—The period at which the domestica tion of the dog first took place is wholly lost in the mist of antiquity. The earliest mention of it, in the sacred Scrip ture, occurs during the sojourn of the Israelites in Egypt ; —" But against Israel shall not a dog move his tongue." It is again mentioned in the Mosaic law, in a manner which would seem to show that they were the common scavengers of the Israelitish camp, as they are still in many cities of the East :—Neither shall ye eat any flesh that is torn of beasts in the field : ye shall eas t it t o th e d ogs ." A similar office seems to be repeatedly alluded to in the course of the Jewish history :—" Him that dieth in the city shall the dogs cat, and him that dieth in the fields shall the fowls of tilt air eat :" a common curse, as it would appear, as it oc curs verbatim on no less than three separate occasions in the First Book of Kings ; and evidently intimates a violent and disgraceful death, without the honours of sepulture. The dog was considered by the Jews as eminently an un clean animal, and was the figure selected for the most con temptuous insults. It is impossible not to b . e struck with the striking similarity which exists in the feelings of many Oriental nations at the present day, amongst whom th e very phraseology of the Scripture is, with little modifi cation, applied to a similar purpose. The it. ancient Greeks, however, would appear to have entertained a ve r y dif ferent sentiment towards Homer, in his Odyssey, employs the faithful attachment of the dog to his master as the foundation of one of the most touching and inte resting incidents in the eventful wanderings of his hero and there is not a modern story of the kind, accumulated as such instances have been by the industry of unnum bered collectors of " anecdotes of the dog," which can surpass—perhaps scarcely equal—the affecting simplicity with which the poor dog's dying recognition of his long-lost master is related, by one who wrote probably not less than two thousand seven hundred veers ago. From that time to. the present, i n a ll countr i es where the religious peculia rities of the people have not interposed, the merits of the dog have been acknowledged and recorded. He has been the pampered minion of Royalty, and the half-starved par taker of th e b egga r' s crust : i n one f orm h e appears as the high-bred hound of the chase ; in another as the lowly but more useful keeper of his master's flocks ; in another as the sure and pertinacious tracker of human felons ; in another as the active destroyer of humbler nuisances, and in another as the laborious beast of burden and of draught.—History of British Quadrupeds, by Thomas Bell, F.R.S., F.L.S. The New York Inquirer contains the following pa ragraph of a slave who sold his wife :—" A fellow named Tom Scudder, a slave belonging himself to Colonel Dem ing, of !Darien, Geo., had indulged himself in the luxury of as wife, for which item of domestic felicity he gave 700 dol lars to a neighbouring tavern-keeper, who had the commo dity on hand. Mr. Torn Scudder kept his purchase on hand until the fabric either b ecame a li tt l e t h rea db are, or until, perhaps, the spirit of speculation rose higher than the spirit of marital affection ; and what does Tom do but put the wife of his bosom up to the highest bidder at auction. The goods' appear to have been in good order and sale able condition, for the lady sold for 7:; . 0 dollars—realizing a very decent profit to th e h us b an d . T om i s sa id to b e above board in his circumstances, and will be able to pur chase his own fre e d om, an d h ave a handsome competency besides ; but Tom k nows b etter , an d re f uses to b ecome free. . i The horrors southern slavery' are well exem plified n this case ; and we take it upon us to say that it is by no means singular in its features, except that we hope the southern negroes are not often in the habit of bartering their conjugal comforts at so small an advance upon prime cost. The other parts of the case are quite common. NEW WORK BY THE AUTHOR OF " THE HEIRESS." Just ready, in 3 vols., post Bvo., THE MERCHANT'S DAUGHTER.
